Original British Napoleonic Dublin Castle Flintlock Light Dragoon Pistol - Circa 1790 US Civil War this being our first exampleOriginal Item: Only One Available. This Flintlock Pistol dates to prior the Battle of Waterloo, so it might just have been there. The Lock Plate is marked Crown G. R. with DUBLIN CASTLE across the lock's tail in a shield. This makes this pistol an example of the very rare Dragoon Pistols made in DUBLIN CASTLE in Ireland, as opposed to the TOWER ARMORIES in London. This is earlier production, so the markings on the lock are cruder than later examples.
